Icons and Taskbar Missing?

When I start up my computer, the desktop just shows up, and the icons and taskbar don't show up at all. I can't even right click on the desktop. I can use the task manager and use that to start up internet explorer. Please help. Thank you.

As a matter of judgment...I would do several thorugh scans for malware before doing this.

You can try a couple of these free online scanners to see if anything has slipped by your protection:(Be advised that some of these scanners will pickup things in "quarantine" from other anti-virus programs - so review the results carefully)
